Assemblyman Anthony Brindisi, D-Utica, will be the featured speaker at the Literacy Coalition of Herkimer and Oneida Counties 9 a.m. meeting Friday in the Utica Public Library's second floor gallery, at 303 Genesee Street.

Brindisi will discuss the proposed Career and Technical Education Diploma and give the coalition a chance to sign the petition.

The diploma would give students another option and would help give them the skills they would need to compete for manufacturing and technical careers.

It would allow them to replace some electives or comparable classes with those they are already enrolled in, for example, through BOCES.
